The night was like ink, and the torches dotted on the head of the city could not illuminate too many places at all, and when you looked under the city wall, it was pitch black, even if someone came over, you couldn't see it when you stood on the top of the city.

The winter night is very cold, and groups of night watchmen huddle around the brazier, snuggling up to each other to keep warm.

A burst of dense footsteps came, and several alert soldiers hurriedly stood up, looked vigilantly in the direction where the sound came from, and watched Gao Shun take the soldiers of the trapped camp to the city.

The captain guarding the city hurriedly stood up and saluted Gao Shun: "General." ”

"By the order of the lord, from now on, the walls of this place will be taken over by the trapping camp, and you will continue to keep vigil, and no one will leave until dawn." Gao Shun took out the token that Lu Bu gave him and said in a deep voice.

"Whoa!" The lieutenant hurriedly straightened his chest and said loudly.

"Open the gates!" Gao Shun ordered the soldiers of the camp to quickly take over the city wall, and then said in a deep voice.

"This ...... Here! The captain wanted to say something, but when he saw Gao Shun's eyes sweeping, he had to take the order and order someone to go and lower the drawbridge.

There was a faint sound of footsteps in the city, and the captain walked to the female wall, and looked down at the wall, but he could see nothing, but with the creaking of the city gate, he could hear the sound of something stepping on the drawbridge, and through the reflection of the moat, he could vaguely see some figures passing by.

What is this for?

The lieutenant was puzzled, but seeing Gao Shun standing in place with a cold face, like a stone statue, he didn't want to ask too much, but the people who were trapped in the camp came up, and they didn't want to get together to keep warm as before, and secretly screamed in his heart that he was unlucky, and kicked up his subordinates one by one and asked them to guard the city well.

……

There were not many men and horses brought out by Lu Bu, only 500 cavalry, horses and horses, and people were ranked, and they quietly approached the Cao army camp.

Although it experienced a defeat during the day, but the morale of the Cao army was in full swing, it would not be affected too much, and on top of the fight, the soldiers of the Cao army shot a fire arrow in the direction of the outside of the camp from time to time, a moment of light, the range was not large, and it was not of much use, but this vigilance was a little stronger than the Picheng defenders.

Above the gate, two Cao soldiers alternately patrolled, one Cao Jun suddenly heard a few sharp screams in the air, subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw that under the night sky, a little cold star flashed away, his throat hurt, his whole body stiffened, he didn't snort, and fell directly from the gate.

Several figures quietly approached the gate, moved away from the antlers outside the gate, and someone climbed up along the gate, turned over the gate, and slowly opened the gate.

Cao Jun, who was patrolling near the gate, noticed the abnormality and hurriedly rushed to this side, but in front of him, dozens of arrow clusters broke through the air from the open gate, and those arrow clusters were extremely accurate, and the ten Cao soldiers who rushed over were shot and killed in an instant, but the movement here also alarmed the other Cao troops, and the barracks began to be chaotic.

In a dull ascension, a biao cavalry rushed over like a whirlwind, and the oncoming Cao army was directly knocked away by the rushing war horse.

In the darkness, a member of the slash was extremely eye-catching in the uncertain firelight, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand was more like the sickle of death, and every swing would take the lives of several Cao soldiers.

"Lu Bu! It's Lu Bu! ”

Someone shouted frantically, and more Cao troops began to rush to this side, but Lu Bu was not in love with the battle, and had already completed the charge with three hundred knights, and rampaged through this huge military camp, and when passing by some braziers, the knights on horseback directly picked up the spears in their hands and picked up those braziers to the surrounding tents.

In order to prevent moisture, most of the marching tents were smeared with grease, and when they encountered Mars, the land was on fire, and for a while, I saw that Cao Jun was on fire everywhere, and groups of Cao Jun soldiers began to run around like headless flies, but Lu Bu didn't care about these, and rushed straight towards the granary where Cao Jun stored grain in the direction pointed out by Zhou Yuan.

At the same time, outside the gate on the other side, Zhang Liao noticed that the Cao army camp began to be chaotic, so he found out from the shadows, concocted according to the law, opened the gate, and took advantage of the chaos to kill the Cao army camp, his task was to cover Lu Bu, like a shadow, rushed directly to the stable, ignited the stable, a large number of horses began to run around, Zhang Liao led people to set fire around, shuttled through the camp, attracted a lot of attention, and suddenly heard a sharp whistle in the distance, which was Lu Bu's retreat signal, and immediately rushed out with people and horses from the direction of Lu Bu's camp, And after Lu Bu found the granary and smashed several braziers into the granary, he turned around directly, did not fight with the Cao army rushing up from all around, and rode directly out of the gate where Zhang Liao entered.

Cao's camp is very large, there are twelve of them alone, Lu Bu chose the two closest to the granary, he and Zhang Liao divided their troops and interspersed them, ignited the stables, granaries and countless tents and then went away, but the fire did not stop because of this, the west wind hung that night, and the fire took advantage of the wind to spread to the entire military camp.

Cao Cao's reaction was not unpleasant, when he heard the shouting of killing, he had already put on his battle armor and ran out to win, when he saw the direction of the fire burning, his face changed, and he shouted: "Not good! Hurry up and put out the fire! ”

It's just that the fire has already started, even though Cao Jun regained his composure and began to extinguish the fire under the appeasement of the generals, but the fire was too big, and everyone could only isolate some tents first, and then go around to the rear to extinguish the fire.

It wasn't until the early morning of the next day, when the sky was just slightly bright, that the fire in the camp was gradually extinguished, but looking at the small half of the camp that had turned into a scorched earth, Cao Cao's eyes were a little dull.

Regardless of the soldiers and horses lost overnight, the real fatal thing is that the camp where the fire broke out is where the granary is located, and this fire burned the grain and grass in the army.

Not to mention destroying Lu Bu at this time, I'm afraid that even if he wants to withdraw his troops, it will be good if half of the 50,000 troops can be left in the end.

"Lord, this ......" Xiahoudun and Cao Ren came over, looking at Cao Cao with a disgraced face, and it was not easy to report the battle damage last night for a while.

"Hurt me!" Cao Cao covered his head and knelt on the ground in pain.

The generals were in a hurry, and they summoned the medical craftsmen who accompanied the army and gave Cao Cao a few injections, which could be regarded as recovering Cao Cao.

Just looking at the scorched earth, Cao Cao was stunned for a while.

"Lord, it's better to ......" Xun You glanced at Cao Cao, hesitated for a moment, and said: "It's better to write to Han Yugong and ask him to fund one or two to help us tide over the difficulties." ”

"Then there will be Lao Gongda." Cao Cao closed his eyes and nodded silently, he knew very well that even if Chen Jue was willing to help, it would be impossible to raise too much grain and grass for a while, but right now, there was no better way.
